The Minnesota House Tax Committee plans to vote on a bill to authorize an urban casino for two Ojibwe tribes.
The White Earth and Red Lake bands operate casinos on their remote reservations but haven't seen many benefits. They are willing to share revenues from an urban casino with the state.
Other tribes with successful casinos oppose the bill, as do other gaming interests.
